[ Featuring The Dixie Boys ]
As I sit here alone in the moonlight
I miss your smiling face
I just pretend everything's all right
Still, I miss your fun embrace
Words can't express how I love you, dear
I wish that you were near
Sitting alone in the moonlight
Wishing that my love was here
Sitting alone in the moonlight
Sweet thoughts of yesterday
Hoping every moment you're all right
Well, you're so far away
All I have left is sweet memories
Of days that used to be
Sitting alone in the moonlight
Wishing you were here with me
I often go strolling by the river's shore
To watch the boats go by
I love to listen to the water roar
As it sings it's lullaby
Each little river seems to say to me
Your lover's drawing near
Sitting alone in the moonlight
Wishing that my love was here
Sitting alone in the moonlight
Sweet thoughts of yesterday
Hoping every moment you're all right
Well, you're so far away
All I have left is sweet memories
Of days that used to be
Sitting alone in the moonlight
Wishing you were here with me
